An example project demonstrating a web application that interacts with a serverless REST API deployment using Lard. This is the companion project to lard-example-crud-api.

• API preparation

  1. Follow all the directions in the lard-example-crud-api README.

• Angular preparation

  1. Install Angular CLI globally: npm i -g @angular/cli

1. Clone this repository and enter its directory:

   git clone https://github.com/lafiosca/lard-example-crud-web.git && cd lard-example-crud-web

2. Run npm i to install the required node modules.

3. Edit bin/definitions.sh as appropriate, only if you changed the default stack names in lard-example-crud-api.

4. Run bin/generate-configs.sh to create a couple of config files referencing your development stack.

5. Run bin/generate-sdk.sh to generate the library code for accessing your development API.

6. Run bin/manage-user-pool.sh with the appropriate option values to establish a user for yourself in your development Cognito User Pool:

   bin/manage-user-pool.sh user create -u yourusername -n 'Your Name' -p +14045551234 -e 'your@email.address'

   This command will prompt you to choose one from a list of generated passwords, and it will present you with a confirmation dialog before taking action. Record your username and password for use in the web application.

7. Run ng serve to start the local web application, pointing at your development stacks.

8. Open http://localhost:4200/ in your web browser.

9. Log into the web application using the username and password from step 6 above.

10. Create, retrieve, update, and delete some notes using your new serverless API deployment.

When you are done, hit control-c in the terminal where your ng serve command is running. You can delete the lard-example-crud-web project directory, but the API and related resources will still exist in your AWS account. Follow the cleanup directions in lard-example-crud-api when you are ready to remove them.
